Interview Handout
Selling yourself
During the interview, you are selling yourself. You need to explain how you are the best match for the job. At the beginning of the interview, listen to the interviewers. Let them explain the job, the duties, and the interview process. Use immediacy behaviors, be positive, and act confident but not aloof. Imagine yourself being the interviewer. How should someone behave if you were considering him or her for a job in your organization? As you answer your questions, explain how your traits are the traits needed for the job. Give specific examples about how you were creative or energetic or patient.
If you are interviewing for a teaching job, you would consider characteristics in excellent teachers including patience, caring, organized, and life-long learner. Think of examples where you have displayed these characteristics in your work or volunteer experiences. Have clear examples about how you have experience and expertise to carry out the duties of the job. You should also understand the company environment and know that you are a good fit. I was working with a search committee, and we were interviewing people for a community college assistant professor position. The man we were interviewing had the education and experience, but he did not understand the community college environment. We are student focused, and when he referred to community college students as “those students” and “students who could not begin at the university level,” we were not impressed. Our students choose to start at a community college because of various reasons. It is a great place to begin their college experience. The people on that committee and the faculty and staff at my college respect our students, many of whom are working, raising families, attending co-curricular activities, and are going to school full time. This individual used wording that angered me. He would not have been a good fit for our college. Know the priorities of the company or organization. You should also consider if you would feel comfortable in the environment as well.
Introducing yourself
The first few minutes of the interview is the most crucial. You will have bathed, cleaned your nails, hair, and brushed your teeth. Go easy on cologne or perfume. If you are interviewing for a professional job, wear a professional, well fitted suit that is black, pinstriped, or navy. Dress shirts or blouses are typically white. Shoes are professional, closed toe, clean, and match your belt. For more information, read the professional appearance chapter of this text.
Arrive 15 minutes early. Take a few minutes to look at yourself in a mirror and make sure that your clothes and makeup have not slipped or faltered on your way there. You should have a professional looking briefcase or satchel with a copy of your resume, cover letter, pad and pens, and portfolio with examples of your work. Always be friendly and respectful. Let the receptionist know that you have ar.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

INTRODUCTION
In Part 2 the IELTS Speaking test, it helps to give a well-organized answer, connect

There are a number of specific situations in which these words and phrases can
help you, for example:
1. You want to begin your answer without hesitating.

3. You want to give a personal example to support your opinion.
4. You want to let the examiner know that you have finished talking
(sometimes it isn’t so obvious).
5. You want to state your reasons or opinions in a well-organized way.

member. If it’s difficult for you to think of a favorite
family member, you can begin your answer with
this expression. Of course, you still have to give a

winter. What’s more, it rains a lot.
